Sailing can be a physically demanding sport, especially on windy days. Our bodies must be prepared for the challenge, or we risk an injury. This course is aimed at adults in the Advanced, Double handed and Intermediate courses, but all are welcome. It runs over skype so sailors can join in at home or watch it later.

The Vikings Double handed course runs on Sunday mornings and is available to Vikings members who have completed at least one term of the Vikings intermediate course or have passed an assessment from one of our coaches.

Our summer sailing school is open to kids aged 8 - 12 years that weigh under 40kg. It offers young sailors an opportunity to have fun playing games on the water while learning how to sail in a safe and fun environment, building confidence and independence by teaching them to sail independently right from the start. We teach the basics of sailing in Optimist dinghies where kids can learn out of the classroom through action and supported experimentation in a controlled, coach supervised setting.
